Chapter 3138 3170 [You peeked at the script]
At this point, Lawyer Saku remembered something and explained apologetically, "I'm not afraid of becoming a criminal. I killed Lawyer Usui so that the villagers could win the factory sewage case. If the presiding judge knew about this, he might have a negative impression of the villagers, which would affect the outcome of the trial. Once a factory is built, it won't be moved away easily. I don't want the generations of residents there to be affected because of me."
A lawyer killed another lawyer for the outcome of a case, and both parties in the incident were well-known and successful people in their respective fields - this kind of thing, as long as it is made public, the relevant people will definitely get the melon, and the presiding judge will also get the news quickly.
Lawyer Saku: "So I planned to frame Jiang Xia first, and then during this period of time, I would quickly facilitate a settlement between the two parties, and then confess my guilt to the police. But I didn't expect..."
When Hibiki heard this, she interrupted him while he was still talking about sex and asked a key question: "Even if you surrender yourself, you can't do it without evidence. If you really plan to surrender yourself after the sewage case is over, then how are you going to prove that it was you who killed Miss Usui, not Jiang Xia?"
Lawyer Saku smiled and said, “When you asked this question, you should have already had the answer in your mind—yes, it was the pliers I used to cut the door chain.
"Because I have done several drills beforehand, there are inevitably some signs of wear on the pliers. The shape of the wear on each pair of pliers is unique. It can prove that I am the one who made the secret room."
Officer Yokomizo joined the conversation calmly: "Where did you buy that pair of pliers?"
Lawyer Saku was a little surprised: "How do you know I didn't bring it here, but bought it now?"
Inspector Yokomizo smiled mysteriously but did not answer.
Lawyer Saku always felt that this smile was full of meaning, and a bit like a bully who deserves a beating. But now that things have come to this, he is too lazy to resist - wearing too thick a disguise in summer will definitely be noticed by passers-by. And if the disguise is not too thin, it will be difficult to perfectly conceal his identity from the surveillance.
In short, judging from what he was wearing when he bought the pliers, as long as the police put in enough effort, they would be able to find out his identity. And now the trouble he caused to the police would eventually be reflected on him in the form of a prison sentence...
Lawyer Saku knew this very well and did not delay. He said honestly, "It's in the mall two blocks away. There is a tool shop there. You will know when you go there."
"Very good." Inspector Yokomizo nodded with satisfaction, took out his cell phone and happily sent a message.
Hibiki Eri looked at the police captain and also thought his behavior was a little strange. However, as a lawyer for so many years, she had seen many police officers of different appearances.
So, Hibiki Eri didn't care, but looked at the colleague in front of her who was supposed to have a bright future: "Although I am also against factories polluting water sources, as a lawyer, you should know that Ms. Usui did nothing wrong. This case is her job, and she is just fulfilling her obligations."
Lawyer Saku smiled and said, "If she really did this just for work and for a living, I certainly wouldn't do anything to her. But that's not the case. She did all this just to become famous and to surpass you."
"For such a ridiculous reason, she lightly imposed pain on the villagers... I can never forgive such a person."
After hearing this, Kisaki Eri suddenly realized something and fell silent: she thought of Jiang Xia who was innocently involved in the incident - now thinking back, Jiang Xia suddenly appeared in Lawyer Usui's room... This incident was most likely an off-court tactic used by Lawyer Usui to deal with her.
If this is true, then it is all her fault that Jiang Xia suffered the disaster today.
"People often make some righteous decisions when they are impulsive, but as reality develops, their emotions quickly cool down... Fortunately, we successfully solved the case today. Otherwise, it is hard to say whether Lawyer Saku would surrender himself. If he changed his mind and took the murder weapon away and destroyed it after leaving, things would be troublesome."
"Let's take a step back and say that even if he really surrenders himself after the sewage case is resolved, given Jiang Xia's fame and influence, how will public opinion develop during this period of time?"
"Jiang Xia finally found what he likes and is engaged in a detective career that is becoming increasingly promising. If it were because of me..."
Attorney Saku looked at the frightened Hibiki Eri with a complex look of sweetness and admiration: "It's a happy trouble to have a colleague like you. If it was another lawyer instead of you who came to Izu with me today, I probably wouldn't have failed miserably like this."
Before Hibiki Eri could come to her senses and say anything, Inspector Yokomizo beside her snorted, "Don't hope for the best. From the moment you planned to frame Mr. Jiang Xia, your fate was already doomed. Even if you hadn't confessed just now, did you really think you could get away with it?"
Lawyer Saku was stunned: "What do you mean?"
Officer Yokomizo smiled smugly, like a viewer who finally got the spoiler, and pulled out a photo. He looked at the culprit who made them get up late at night to work overtime and asked, "Do you want to see what this is?"
Lawyer Saku frowned and looked at it, his pupils suddenly dilated: in the photo, there was a familiar fire extinguisher box, and next to it, a police officer was holding a long, heavy cloth bag... This was where he hid the murder weapon!
"You, you guys..." Although he had planned to surrender just now, the feeling of revealing the information as if giving alms and being hit on the head with a bag of evidence by the police were completely different.
"You don't think your frame-up plan was nearly successful."
Looking at his shocked expression, Inspector Yokomizo suddenly understood why some of his colleagues were frantically posting news about Jiang Xia on their blogs every day, as if they had turned into fanatical fans - this god-like detective is indeed more fascinating than many celebrities.
Looking at the stunned murderer and the two stunned solvers in front of him, Inspector Yokomizo put away the photo in his hand and raised his chin.
He looked at Attorney Saku and said, "Do you know when this photo was taken? It was one minute after Mr. Jiang Xia left us as a 'major suspect'."
Lawyer Saku was completely stunned: Jiang Xia had clearly been sleeping in bed, and was later woken up by a group of people, found the body on the ground, and followed them outside the house... It was just such a short period of time, how could this be possible? !
